WHO WE ARE
It began in a small workshop, crafting and fabricating commissioned pieces by hand. Back in 1991, no one thought of concrete as much more than a way to build parking garages. But we saw potential. With an elevated design sensibility, an understanding of contemporary architecture, and the dedication to become students of the material, Concreteworks has led the vanguard to claim concrete as an elegant, strong material. For 30 years now we’ve provided our clients with the highest quality service and custom solutions, making their ideas reality. Our community is the driving force. We recognize the needs of our

clients and our environment, approaching each project with discipline and rigor. We are guided by the principles of sustainability in our methods and materials. By constantly exploring the boundaries of concrete and keeping in tune with contemporary design, we are able to grow in capacity and aid in the evolution of the material from which our company takes its name. We strive to meet the needs of our clients by producing pieces that reflect our knowledge and attention to design. At the same time, we acknowledge the needs of our community and environment, by handcrafting our product locally. Everything we produce meets rigorous in-house standards as well as industry-standard architectural and engineering specifications. We are a leader in the manufacturing of custom architectural pre-cast concrete in North America. We are a progressive, full-service, design and fabrication studio, specializing in innovative solutions using cast concrete and other cement-based composites.
